If you are looking for a versatile bow tie that you can mix with your gray flannel suit, tweed jacket, or navy flannel blazer, then try purchasing a yellow foulard bow. In the photo, I am wearing a wool yellow bow tie, and I always prefer wool or tweed during the fall or winter months. The girth of the wool or tweed fabric creates a better look bow, and without question, nothing irritates me more than a blasted thin/flimsy bow tie. They are nearly impossible to tie, and I just assume to throw one away as to own it. So, if you only own one bow tie this fall, make it a wool yellow foulard bow. You will not regret it!

Just as soon....just as soon.
Richard, what was your choice of jacket with that ensemble?
The floppy ties are much classier, in my opinion. I would have as sooned you'd agree.
Getting a bit jowly there, old man! Suits you well, though, I must say. Very old world.
UGH!
Short comment: You might want to avoid bows altogether. They draw attention to one's neck and chin, which, in your case, should be avoided. Hope that isn't taken the wrong way. Regardless, the tie is pretty.
Richard,
I would hope that everyone who is interested in you fashion recommendations would at least own one of them in there bow tie collection won't you think?

Your neck is just fine
Richard -- nice tie. Your neck and chin are fine. Don't listen to the nitwits!
I like the diamond point, but don't really see bright yellow as a fall color. If Midwest trad is hinting that a bow tie with no blasted coat looks odd, I second that.
I'm not big on the moire patterned shirt.
I wore a navy flannel blazer.
Anon @ 9:29. - Thank you. Was trying to come up with one also.
